Chapter 545 Opening Ceremony

  December 5th.

this day.

  Pengcheng Sports Center.

  Lin Yao came here early in the morning, and then started to run around to complete the final confirmation work with the staff of Linmu Esports.

  In the evening, it is the opening ceremony of the e-sports festival.

   And such a huge activity.

   Tell the truth.

   Just confirming the work of each department is enough...

  Lin Yao came in the morning and was busy until two o'clock in the afternoon before returning to the lounge, sitting down and preparing for lunch.

"What to eat for lunch?"

  A corner of the lounge.

  Lin Yao asked while unpacking the takeaway bag. Although her face was tired, her voice didn't change much.

  Still alive.

   "Stuffed bitter gourd and soy sauce chicken."

  Mu Wanqing unpacked the chopsticks, and while replying, handed the taken out chopsticks to Lin Yao.

   "..."

  Lin Yao took the chopsticks and bit them in her mouth. The speed of unpacking the plastic bags was much faster.

  Because what Mu Wanqing just said are all her favorite dishes.

Mu Wanqing glanced at Lin Yao, smiled softly, then sat next to her, put her hand on her chin, and said gently: "Actually, you don't have to check it yourself, there have been so many rehearsals, can the staff of Linmu E-sports Done."

   "That's right..."

  Lin Yao untied the plastic bag and put the bowl of soup on the top aside. Because she was biting her chopsticks, her speech was a bit vague: "But I will definitely be worried. I won't feel relieved if I don't go through it myself."

  Mu Wanqing smiled and said: "But this is not the first time we have held an e-sports festival, it has been several years, not to mention we held a carnival in the first half of the year, it was so successful..."

   "It is precisely because of the success of the carnival in the first half of the year that the e-sports festival has formed a fixed impression. As a reformed session, I am not at ease."

  Lin Yao opened the lid of the takeaway box and replied at the same time.

  Then, she suddenly paused, took the lid of the takeaway box, looked back at Mu Wanqing, and said with a smile, "Did it go back to the original point...?"

   "..." Mu Wanqing smiled helplessly.

   "Actually, no matter how troublesome it is, there is only half a day left."

  Seeing the expression on Mu Wanqing's face, Lin Yao took off the chopsticks she was biting, and her words became clear again: "The opening ceremony is about to begin tonight... Let's regard it as the ordeal before success."

   Talking and talking.

  She looked up and looked out the window.

The weather today is good.

   Outside, the sky was blue and spotless.

  Lin Yao broke off the chopsticks and murmured: "Today is a good weather, I hope everything goes well."

"Most definitely."

  Mu Wanqing nodded vigorously, and then said, "Hurry up and eat."

   "Hmm...do you want to eat?"

  Lin Yao withdrew her gaze and looked at Mu Wanqing.

"I have already eaten."

   "Then please bring me a bottle of water."

"it is good."

   "..."

  In the lounge.

  The two of them chatted one after another, and occasionally there were crisp and melodious laughter.

   And out the window.

  Sunlight flicks.

  …

evening.

   It's not even five o'clock yet.

  Pengcheng Sports Center outside.

  The security check channel just opened.

  The audience formed a long queue, waiting for the ticket check to enter.

  With tens of thousands of spectators, it is not easy to ensure safety and order.

   Fortunately, after several e-sports festivals, Linmu e-sports is already very experienced, and with the assistance of Pengcheng.

   The problem is not big.

   After the baptism of several e-sports festivals, the players already have a certain tacit understanding.

  Even if it is still early before the official opening of the e-sports festival.

   Audience members who have nothing to do will also come to the scene in advance.

  On the one hand, it is because they cannot wait, and on the other hand, it is also because it will be of no benefit to anyone if they squeeze together to enter the venue.

   Unless there is really no other way, most players will not pinch.

   Now there are almost three hours left until the opening ceremony.

  However, several security check passages are already crowded with people, which looks quite spectacular.

   "This is...too many people."

   Kou Hong was in the middle of one of the ticket checking queues.

  He looked around and saw the crowds of people around him. While his scalp was numb, he couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

   These are not only domestic players, there are also a large number of overseas players in each ticket inspection team, at least about 30% by visual estimation.

   Nima, some sports events are not that exaggerated...

  Did so many people watch the game competition?

   This is his only thought at the moment.

no way.

  Kou Hong really doesn’t understand this field, he doesn’t even play games…

  The reason why he bought a ticket to come to the scene was only because he had a strong interest in this company when he helped Linmu Studio shoot the short film "Box".

  After watching the promotional video of the e-sports festival, I became interested in the activities held by this forest studio.

   Then, my head became hot.

  He bought a ticket and ran over.

   But before he came, he didn't expect that there would be so many spectators in the game competition.

   "This is too outrageous, the event held by Linmu Studio...what magic power is there?"

   Kou Hong looked at the end of the long queue of players and the players who came to line up continuously, very curious.

  …

   At the same time when Kou Hong sighed.

   Another team.

  A blond but thin man said excitedly: "David! We're back! We're back again! We finally got tickets!"

   "Yes, Hank."

Another man with two big flower arms who looked a bit like the former sighed and said a little sadly: "Two years!! Damn it! It's really getting harder and harder to get tickets for Linmu Studio. We couldn’t get the tickets for the festival, and we couldn’t get the tickets for the carnival...we finally got it this year.”

   "No way, too many people want it."

The thin Hank patted his brother on the shoulder and comforted him: "But don't be too sad. Think about it from another angle. Although it's a pity that we didn't get tickets in the past two years...but this year we got it! And this year's The e-sports festival is different from previous years! I have a hunch! This e-sports festival will definitely have a big surprise!"

"…Too."

  David thought for a while, and felt that what his brother said made sense, so he nodded and became happy again.

   Next.

  The two began to chat with each other.

   And talking and talking.

  David thought of something, and suddenly said: "Dear brother, I want to change my job."

   "Why?" Hank was taken aback.

   "My **** boss doesn't grant leave, this time I resigned to watch the game."

David shrugged: "Maybe I can go to work at your company. After all, your boss seems to be very talkative, and he can approve you every year, whether it is to come to the scene or watch the game online... What is your reason for asking?" To fake?"

"…be honest."

  Hank paused, then spread his hands: "Our boss is very reasonable!"

   "Awesome."

  David looked envious.

   Hank nodded perfunctorily and didn't say much.

  He is already very proficient, so just perfunctory at this time.

  Anyway, he asked for leave with his ability!

  As for the reason for asking for leave this year, it’s actually very simple... His girlfriend who has been dating for two years is suffering from cancer. Although he doesn’t have a **** girlfriend, for this day, he made up a...

  And in order to increase his credibility, he began to lay the groundwork for his girlfriend in front of the boss early on, and even said that he planned to get married.

   This succeeded in convincing his boss that he has a girlfriend and they are very affectionate.

   Raise soldiers for a thousand days, use them for a while...

  For this moment!

  'Girlfriend' is always ready to die...

   "Linmu Studio shouldn't disappoint, right? It should make my 'girlfriend' die worthwhile?"

   Hank looked towards the end of the line and thought silently.

  …

  Same team.

   end.

   "I wanted to come to see the scene a long time ago, and this time I finally have the opportunity,"

  A middle-aged man in his thirties, with short hair, a high nose, and a white shirt looked around and sighed.

   Then, his sight was attracted by a figure from behind.

  He looked at the back, feeling a little familiar, showing a suspicious expression.

   But soon.

He just shook his head and said regretfully: "It can't be him... Poor Hank, he likes games more than me, but he is so unfortunate, the whole family seems to be cursed... Even his girlfriend can't escape the bad luck, ah , God bless him!"

   Hank's boss thought of his employees and prayed for him.

   But he didn't know it.

   Poor employee in his mouth, right in front of him...

  And Hank himself didn't know that his boss was right behind him.

   It can only be said that things are impermanent.

   Just don't know.

  Will it be more impermanent...

  …

as time flows.

  More and more spectators outside the venue entered the venue.

   Then one after another, more new viewers came to line up.

  The average time for each person to check the ticket is about a few seconds.

  Lin Yao reserved enough time for admission.

  So although there are many people, as long as they are not late, they will definitely be able to enter the venue before the opening ceremony.

   And the time came to six forty.

Outside.

   There are not many people left.

   On the contrary, the sports center was crowded with people.

   A person's voice is very small.

  But when the voices of tens of thousands of people gather together, it will be too lively...

   And the audience, it was okay at first.

   But as 7:30 approached and the time for the opening ceremony approached, they became excited and their voices became louder.

   And living in such an environment.

  Even Kou Hong, who doesn't play games, couldn't help getting excited.

   Although he felt that this feeling came inexplicably...

  As the hour hand points to seven o'clock.

   Only half an hour left.

  The backstage also became tense.

  The main reason is that the players in the opening game were a little nervous.

  The staff and Lin Yao can't take care of it for the time being.

  Because I was too busy.

"How about it?"

  Lin Yao confirmed the procedure of the opening ceremony again, and then came to Nie Hui, the general manager, and asked a question.

   "Everything is ready." Nie Hui took a deep breath, "The time is up."

"That's good."

  Lin Yao breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at a corner of the stage through the monitor, looked at the excited audience, and smiled knowingly.

  …

at the same time.

  North America, Gilber Corporation.

   Today, Frank came to the company early in the morning.

  He yawned, went to pour himself a cup of coffee, and then returned to his place.

   Power on.

open the Web page.

   Clicked on the online live broadcast of the Linmu Studio E-sports Festival.

   Then lean back.

   "Is it about to start? So what is Lin Yao's reason for forcibly changing the date of the e-sports festival? What's the point?"

Frank picked up the steaming coffee on the table and took a sip, then looked at the live broadcast room that was counting down, and laughed, "I can't even match the time... Evening is the time for the Global Game Awards, won't you Do you think this will cause trouble for us?"

  He is really curious about the e-sports festival of Linmu Studio.

   Of course, there are still some concerns.

   This is why he came to the company early in the morning.

   However, curiosity outweighs worry.

  Because in the final analysis, if there is no new game released by Linmu Studio by the end of this year.

  That said everything is false.

   So he didn't take it too seriously.

  Live page.

   Half an hour.

   Fleeting.

   returns to zero over time.

  The live broadcast has officially started!

The    screen appears.

  All the players, seeing the screen appear, immediately focused on the screen, and Frank withdrew his thoughts and looked at the live broadcast room.

at the same time.

  E-sports festival site.

  The lights dimmed.

  The entire venue was plunged into darkness.

  The auditorium, which was noisy just now, suddenly became quiet.

   Then a few seconds later.

  Boom—

   On the huge game viewing screen, a countdown suddenly appeared.

   Seeing the countdown, the cheers immediately rang out.

   Next.

  The repertoire of the e-sports festival is here.

  The whole audience counted down together.

   "5."

   "4."

   "3."

"2."

"1!"

  The overwhelming sound of the countdown, accompanied by the changing numbers on the screen, filled the atmosphere.

at last.

   Count down to 1 hour.

  The audience cheered again.

at the same time.

  The number disappears.

   On the big screen watching the game, the faces of two contestants suddenly appeared.

  It is the old opponents of the "Breakout" project, Chen Xi of NO.1 and Lutai of FEIREN.

  The two of them occupied one side of the screen and sat in front of the computer.

   Then the next second.

  The two looked up at the camera, suddenly raised their hands, slapped the table twice, and then slapped their palms violently.

  The monotonous sound of slapping the table and applause did not make the players cheer, but only made the players feel puzzled.

   And before the player reacted.

  The player on the screen has changed.

  This time they are the star contestants of the "Heroes" project, Han Di and Bu Wenhua.

  The two also looked at the camera, patted the table twice, and then clapped their hands.

  The table-slapping and applause they made was mixed with the voices of the two players in front of them, and it became louder.

   Next, the star players of the "DOTA" project, Potter Fink and Su Xingchang...

Then.

  When their slapping on the table and applause mixed together again, it became clearer.

   Suddenly the spotlight came on!

   But not the main stage.

   It is the sub-stage on the right.

   On the sub-stage.

  The band appeared in the center of the stage.

   Behind them, colorful spotlights swept across.

  The sound of the drum set sounded.

  Drum beats and applause make it a rhythm.

   And then the bass and guitar ensemble…

   While watching the game on the big screen.

  More and more players' faces appeared on the screen.

  Overseas, domestic, well-known, low-key.

  Different nationalities have different teams.

   But they are doing the same action.

   Pat the table, clap your hands.

  The entire venue, applause rang out.

   All the players present have seen the carnival.

  They guessed what this was about almost instantly.

   And those familiar e-sports players.

   Infecting all players...

soon.

  The first spectator who clapped along appeared.

Then.

   is the second, the third... Countless!

  Intensive applause, caught in a very infectious rhythm.

   And the prelude is very long.

until.

   All contestants' faces have appeared.

   All players have found their favorite players.

  The voice of the vocalist.

   Then it rang.

  With a hearty sense of explosion after depression! !

  【Buddyyou\'reaboymakeabignoise (buddyyou\'reaboymakeabignoise)】

  【Playinginthestreetsgonnabeabigmansomeday”

  【Yougotmudonyourface (You got muddy)】

  The lead singer roared out like an explosion.

   This time.

   Even more shocking than the Forest Carnival!

  Because of this, there were nearly 60,000 spectators at the scene!

  In the entire venue, the lights were turned off, and the only thing that was lit was the stage.

  The audience in the auditorium couldn't see the situation next to them clearly, and they couldn't even see the appearance of the lead singer.

  Because the screen is full of the faces of the contestants!

  But they still applauded spontaneously, looking at the screen to find their favorite players.

   Let your applause resound throughout the venue!

  【Singing (sing out loud)】

  【Wewill, wewill rockyou (we will rock you)】

  【Wewill, wewillrockyou (We will rock you)】

  The climax of the song.

   Very messy.

  Because not only the voice of the lead singer, but also the voices of all e-sports players.

  But the lead singer, drummer, bass, guitar, e-sports players, and the audience sang together, which made the phrase "Wewill, wewillrockyou" extremely shocking.

This song.

this moment.

   Player feels really fit here!

  It's like the words of e-sports players - we will shock you! !

   "ohhhhhhhhhh!!"

  The audience almost didn't want to wait for a moment.

Interlude.

  The cheers that seemed to overturn the entire venue erupted in an instant.

  Offstage.

   a location.

  Kou Hong sat there dumbfounded.

  As the players cheered, they finally stopped clapping subconsciously.

  He wanted to cover his ears because it was so **** loud!

  But I don't want to cover my ears.

  Because it's too hot!

  Is this the magic of the e-sports festival? ?

  This explosive power...

  He doesn't know what it is.

  He just wanted to cheer loudly, stand up with the other players, roar and cheer!

  The roar of the players, accompanied by the guitar solo.

   Ending this hallowed rock song.

  The atmosphere was instantly boosted.

   Players cheered again.

   And when the players cheered.

   On the side stage where the band was located, the lights went dark with a snap.

   Then another side stage.

  The light suddenly came on.

   There is no stagnation at all.

   Another band appears.

  The tall female lead singer appeared in the spotlight.

   On the huge viewing screen.

  A line of words appeared—【LegendsNeverDie (Legends Never Die)】.

   Then, the prelude to the song sounded.

  The audience has not slowed down yet, the next second.

   Listening to the unfamiliar prelude.

   cheered again!

   Their cheers complement the prelude to the song.

  【Legendsneverdie (Legends never die)】

  【When the world calling you (the world is calling you)】

  【Canyouhearthemscreamingoutyourname (can hear your name being shouted)】

  The hollow female voice began to chant gently.

   If the rock and roll just now was moving, then this time it is quiet.

  The melodious female voice seems to bring back memories.

  With a tragic feeling of a loser.

   While watching the game on the big screen.

  It is true that the "failure" of each previous e-sports festival is played in rotation...or the difficult moments.

   It’s good to miss a move in chess.

  BP mistakes are fine.

   Mistakes in decision-making are fine.

   In short.

  These are difficult moments.

   Tell the truth.

   Feels out of place.

  E-sports Festival opens and engages in these...

   Kou Hong managed to calm down, looking at those pictures from an outsider, subconsciously came up with this idea.

   But he just had the idea.

  The music changed suddenly...

  The screen also began to change.

  【Everytime youbleed for reaching greatness (Writing against adversity makes greatness)】

  【Relentlessyousurvive (stained red with blood and sweat)】

  【Theyneverlosehopeeverything\'scoldandthefighting\'snear (never give up, despite the challenges and cold words)】

  【It\'sdeepintheirbonesthey\'llrunintosmokewhenthefireisfierce (born tenacious, never afraid of the wind and waves)】

  Melodious female voice.

   Suddenly became excited! With a kind of "go all out" free and easy!

   Even if you reach a desperate situation, you must fight to the death and be unyielding!

   And, the stoicism that must want to become a legend!

   These are conveyed to everyone through singing.

   This is another burning!

   And... it works really well.

  Kou Hong opened his mouth, his face flushed, and then shivered violently on the spot.

   Goosebumps all over my arms.

  He was speechless.

even.

  He felt like he was hallucinating.

  Because he couldn't understand what the person next to him said.

   "David, it's good that my girlfriend died... This time, it's really worth it!"

  What is this talking about.

   Kou Hong glanced at the two overseas audiences next to him, and immediately looked away.

  Because the **** stage sang 'Legends neverdie' again!

  The audience could no longer hold back and cheered again.

  Kou Hong couldn't even understand the game, but he still followed the players and cheered loudly.

no way.

  I can't bear it!

   In such an environment.

  He finally knew the magic power of this event in Linmu Studio.

  On the stage, the female singer became even better in the second half of the song.

   and the end.

  When the big characters [Heroes and Legends] appeared on the big screen of the game.

   "ohhhhhhhhhh!!"

  The atmosphere has reached a peak again!

   Get pushed up again! Keep getting pushed up!

  Not at the scene, the audience watching the live broadcast couldn't hold it anymore.

  Don't talk about the audience.

  Even professional players can't handle it...

   Stage entrance channel.

   Several professional teams are on standby, preparing for the final stage.

   and the top.

   is the representative of CTG and FEIREN.

   Lutai and Bu Wenhua.

  The two carried the final trophy they won last year, although they did not belong to the same project.

   But the expression is almost exactly the same.

   were all flushed with excitement.

   Moreover, I clenched my empty hand into a fist, trembling slightly with excitement...

  Whether it is the first song or the second song.

   Lethality against them.

   Really big.

  Before they were pro gamers, they were human beings.

   "Fuck! After this opening ceremony, I don't take the trophy back this year! I feel sorry for myself!"

   Lu Tai glanced at the trophy on his shoulder, and suddenly cursed.

   "..."

Beside   , Bu Wenhua glanced at him.

  Although he didn't speak.

   But obviously holding the same idea.

  Behind them, several other teammates looked at each other, and the fighting spirit was also ignited in their eyes.

   But what they don't know is.

   Behind them.

   Those e-sports players who failed to carry the trophy are watching them.

  The light in his eyes was exactly the same as theirs.

  E-sports players and spectators, excited, excited, and mixed with a little sentiment.

   But at the scene, there was nothing muddled.

   Finish playing along with the ending.

  The [Heroes and Legends] on the screen slowly faded away.

   Then the lights on the sub-stage on the left also dimmed.

  deng—

Then.

  The lights on the main stage turned on.

   The players didn't have to think about it, and immediately cheered.

   And their cheers are like some kind of signal.

  The band on the main stage played the first syllable.

   A heavy drum beat.

   Immediately after.

   Empty and vicissitudes, the sound of epic wind instruments sounded.

   Instantly.

  All the players were stunned for a moment, and then instantly got goosebumps all over their bodies.

  In the playing channel.

  All the team members of the "Breakout" project were stunned in place, and then they also got goosebumps like crazy.

  Because the music being played is...the music used in the finals of the first Breakout Challenge, the predecessor of the e-sports festival, the name is "Open Sky"!

  The music sounded suddenly, with a sense of calmness covering up the turbulent waves.

on site.

   Watch the game on the big screen.

  The screen of the first Breakout Challenge appeared.

   Then came the second Breakout Challenge.

   Then came the restructured e-sports festival...

  Scenes of past events, along with the music that hides the turbulent waves under the calm waves, are displayed in front of the players one by one.

   At the beginning, there was only one project, "Breakout", but slowly, it progressed with the music performance.

   "Heroes", "dota", "Warcraft"...The pictures of these events are also added.

   Next.

  The music suddenly changed midway.

  With the arrogance of who I am.

  Ethnic musical instruments paired with electronic sounds.

   Majestic!

   while on the screen.

  The pictures of each team and player winning the championship began to be played.

  Shock!

   Kou Hong raised his head.

  The music this time doesn’t have any lyrics, it’s just pure music.

  He couldn't hear the lyrics.

  He can't read the game either.

but.

  Listening to the music with the heroic spirit, looking at those contestants who are wearing golden fireworks and embracing each other excitedly.

  He felt a certain sense of power.

  A kind of... a sense of power that shocked him.

   This time.

  The players did not shout loudly, but all looked up at the big screen, watching the previous scenes.

   After the foreshadowing of the previous two songs.

  Most of them had the same idea as Kou Hong, that is, they felt a certain sense of shocking power.

   Countless audience members raised their heads.

   Under the reflection of the stage lights, it was reflected in the camera.

   Watch the game on the big screen.

  After the screens of last year's championship team appeared one by one.

   Music also came to the second half.

   The cheers of the players finally sounded.

  They shouted with all their strength and vented their emotions without reservation!

   And while they were shouting.

   Watch the game on the big screen.

  All the pictures appear on the same screen.

  The scenes of the e-sports festival in the past... suddenly began to go backwards.

Then.

  All the screens began to collapse inward.

   It's like trying to gather this scene into one point!

   And on the main stage.

  The spotlights also began to dim one by one.

   One, two, three...

  Music comes to the end.

Snapped-

   Accompanied by the last light being turned off.

  The music played to the end.

   But the aftertaste still remains.

   While watching the game on the big screen.

  The pictures that appeared on the same screen collapsed inward, and finally constituted an object—an abstract, black and white 'box'.

   A 'box' similar to a Rubik's cube!

   It is the LOGO of this year's e-sports festival! !

   "..."

  The audience looked at the LOGO made up of the game screen on the screen, and fell silent for a while.

Then.

  The huge sound volume burst out suddenly.

   Deafening.

   "ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

  …

   "..."

at the same time.

   Gilber Corporation.

  An office.

  Frank held the coffee, maintaining a posture of wanting to drink it.

   But there has been no movement.

  The coffee in his cup was boiling hot at the beginning, the mist rose, and then slowly, it became warm.

   No longer spreads mist.

finally.

   Frank saw the end.

  I saw the appearance of LGOO at this year's Forest E-sports Festival.

   Come back to God.

   "What TheFucK."

  He took a sharp breath, then glanced at the coffee in his hand, wanted to drink it again and again, and finally dropped the cup directly.

   He had to admit.

  This opening ceremony... really shocked!

  It was shocking.

  It was much more shocking than previous Global Game Awards.

   When it comes to mobilizing emotions, Linmu Studio still knows a little better.

   This made him a little worried.

  Frank looked at the coffee on the table and began to think.

  But soon, he reacted and shook his head.

  Calmly pick up the coffee again.

   "No... I'm confused, this is an e-sports festival, how can it affect me?"

   Changed the order of the chapters... It was really messy before, it was my fault.

   From now on, let’s take this as the standard...
